Probably not going to happen. I read somewhere that if users are allowed to reap /tmp anytime at will, a malicious user can exploit some race condition in tmp file creation to do privilege escalation. Could you dig up the article? I can't see any reasons why it wouldn't be utterly trivial to make such a program totally abuse safe. _______________________________________________ Gnu-arch-users mailing list Gnu-arch-users@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-arch-users GNU arch home page: http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/gnu-arch/
